I fish alot of rivers, and the fusion and the fireline didn't perform the way I expected. The fusion did put a knotch in the tip, but it wasn't that bad. After awhile in current the fusion seemed like it unraveled. It was like a thin piece of plastic after awhile. Goofy stuff.
The fireline kept crossing over itself in my spinning reel, which got to be a hassel. And it seemed like you were ripping the fishes lips off when you lightly set the hook. I couldn't get used to it. It's a great line for some folks. But, not for me.
I use the gorilla braid line on one of my tipups, and it's great. But I've never tried it on a spinning reel..lol.
